漁鷗 Pallas's Gull

27 Feb 2009, Mai Po



Hope we id it right, no other gulls i could find has this colour pattern...matches with the drawing in the book very well, probably a 2nd-winter one?










many thanks to all the senior birders today!

Hi Beetle, you posted it so fast!  I'm just back home, started to relax.    I was the one with Tak, without glasses, with green long-sleeved T-shirt and a green Nikon scope.

Nice birding day with you all.  Hope we can meet very soon!   I hope it's really a Pallas's gull, though whatever it is should be my new tick to me!
